Some news

So it’s been a very long time since a podcast. A very large portion of that is on me. We’ve had multiple illnesses (pneumonia, upper respiratory infection and stomach bugs) go through the Cochran household. Plus, I believe I’ve mentioned before, my wife went back to work full time for the first time in 8 years. We were just about to get used to the schedule and how everything was going to work……and then the rug got pulled out. The school district decided that there weren’t enough kids at my wife’s school to justify that many kindergarten classes. So they decided to send my wife to a different school and she’s now teaching 3rd grade.

Yeah…..that was a lot of fun. We’re finally starting to get settled down and comfortable with everything again. So AtC and I talked the other day and agreed we needed to buckle down and get back on the podcast horse. You’ll be seeing new episodes from us shortly.

In other news, someone has made a grave, grave mistake. Success!
